Advanced Apprenticeship Scheme

The scheme is intended to combine formal training (both on and off the job) with practical experience across the business with the aim of creating future Technicians and Crafts people. The first year of the apprenticeship is dedicated to providing a foundation in manufacturing within the training school. The following three years combine day release in further education with practical hand-on training within Delphi in order to gain a nationally recognised qualification.

Year in Industry

The programme provides post A-level students, interested in a career in Engineering, with the opportunity to undertake interesting and challenging projects, and learn how our business works over a 1 year placement. During this placement, students are also given the opportunity to undertake a Management Qualification and a Maths bridging course. Delphi has provided great opportunities to make a real difference in the Company, culminating in one of our previous Year In Industry students, Jieying Luo, winning the National Contribution to the Business Award.

Placement Year

The placement year can vary between 9-12 months. Its aim is to provide undergraduate students with the opportunity to gain practical, hands-on industry experience by working on current engineering projects. A variety of training opportunities, as well as mentoring, are available to our undergraduate students in order to progress their practical skills and engineering knowledge.

Engineering Development Scheme

This is a five-year development programme. The overriding aim of the Scheme is to provide graduate engineers with a framework within which to develop their technical and soft skills, and to provide opportunities for career progress. This is achieved by a series of placement rotations within Delphi, formal external/internal training, mentoring and support in gaining professional registration with institutions such as the IMechE and IET.
